1 The separatist seeks his own desire; He breaks out against all sound wisdom.
2 A fool does not delight in understanding, But in uncovering his own heart.
3 When a wrong one comes, scorn comes too. And with shame comes reproach.
4 The words of a man’s mouth are deep waters; The fountain of wisdom is a flowing stream.
5 It is not good to show partiality to the wrong, Or to turn aside the righteous in right-ruling.
